[0030] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1is a flow chart of a fan control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The fan control method of the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to an air conditioner to control the fan speed according to the condensing pressure to reduce the condensing pressure and avoid starting the compressor under high pressure. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes steps S110 to S140.

[0031] S110, under the control of a start-up instruction for starting the air conditioner, confirming whether it is necessary to start the compressor of the air conditioner.

[0032] In the embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner is generally provided with a compressor, a fan, a condenser and other devices for maintaining the normal operation of the air conditioner. When a start-up instruction for starting the air conditioner is detected, it is confirmed whether the air conditioner needs to start the compressor. The start-up instruction is usually issued by a user. For example, the user can control the start and stop of the air conditioner through a remote controller and other devices, and control the operating state of the air conditioner through the remote controller. After the air conditioner is started and during the operation of the air conditioner, it is detected whether the compressor needs to be started.

[0033] When the air conditioner is running, it will confirm whether the compressor needs to be started according to the automatic control logic of the whole machine, which is usually related to multiple factors such as indoor temperature, set temperature, system pressure, temperature, cooling demand and heating demand. When the automatic control logic of the air conditioner needs to start the compressor, it can obtain the instruction to start the compressor and keep the compressor in the off state, and confirm whether the compressor needs to be started according to the current condensing pressure of the condenser of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0034] S120: If it is necessary to start the compressor of the air conditioner, the condensing pressure of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is obtained.

[0035] In the embodiment of the present invention, the condensing pressure refers to the pressure generated when the refrigerant changes from gas to liquid in the condenser, which can be measured by a condensation sensor. When the compressor needs to be started, the condensing pressure of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, that is, the condensing pressure of the condenser, is obtained.

[0036] S130: If the condensing pressure is greater than a first preset high pressure critical value, the fan of the air conditioner is started and the compressor is kept in an off state.

[0037] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first preset high-pressure critical value is an empirical value, which can be obtained by conducting multiple experiments on the air conditioner. The first preset high-pressure critical value is a judgment condition for starting the compressor. After obtaining the condensing pressure, the smaller value between the condensing pressure and the first preset high-pressure critical value is compared. When the condensing pressure is less than or equal to the first preset high-pressure critical value, the compressor can be started normally. When the condensing pressure is greater than the first preset high-pressure critical value, the compressor is maintained in an off state. The condensing pressure is a real-time pressure, that is, the air conditioner obtains the condensing pressure in real time through the condensing sensor.

[0038] S140, confirming the target gear of the fan according to the condensing pressure and controlling the fan to run at a speed corresponding to the target gear for a first preset time, and then controlling the compressor to start.

[0039] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the condensing pressure is greater than the first preset high pressure critical value, the target gear of the fan is confirmed according to the actual value of the condensing pressure, that is, different condensing pressures can correspond to different fan gears. Multiple gears can be preset in advance to correspond to different condensing pressures. For example, three gears can be preset, namely the first preset gear, the second preset gear and the third preset gear. The first preset gear, the second preset gear and the third preset gear correspond to the first interval, the second interval and the third interval respectively. Then, when the condensing pressure is in the first interval, the target gear is the first preset gear, when the condensing pressure is in the second interval, the target gear is the second preset gear, and when the condensing pressure is in the third interval, the target gear is the third gear.

[0040] After the fan starts and maintains the speed corresponding to the target gear for the first preset time, the compressor is controlled to start normally. The first preset time is the running time of the fan after reaching the speed corresponding to the target gear, which is an empirical value. For example, the first preset time can be 30 seconds. Then, when the fan maintains the target speed for 30 seconds, the compressor is controlled to start. After the fan runs for the first preset time, it can dissipate heat for the outdoor unit and reduce the condensing pressure of the outdoor unit.

[0041] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, such as in an embodiment of the present invention, step S140 also includes steps S141-S144.

[0042] S141, respectively obtaining a second preset high pressure critical value and a third preset high pressure critical value;

[0043] S142, if the condensing pressure is greater than the first preset high pressure critical value and less than or equal to the second preset high pressure critical value, controlling the fan to operate at a first preset gear;

[0044] S143, if the condensing pressure is greater than the second preset high pressure critical value and less than or equal to the third preset high pressure critical value, controlling the fan to operate at a second preset gear;

[0045] S144: If the condensing pressure is greater than the third preset high pressure critical value, the fan is controlled to operate according to the third preset gear.

[0046] In the embodiment of the present invention, the rated speed of the fan corresponds to the third preset gear, then 50% of the rated speed can correspond to the second preset gear, and 20% of the rated speed can correspond to the first preset gear. It can be understood that the division of gears is not limited to the above division method.

[0047] If the first preset high pressure critical value is less than the second preset high pressure critical value, and the second preset high pressure critical value is less than the third preset high pressure critical value, different intervals can be formed by the first preset high pressure critical value, the second preset high pressure critical value, and the third preset high pressure critical value, and the corresponding gear is determined according to the interval in which the condensing pressure falls. For example, the first interval corresponds to between the first preset high pressure critical value and the second preset high pressure critical value, the second interval corresponds to between the second preset high pressure critical value and the third preset high pressure critical value, and the third interval corresponds to greater than the third preset high pressure critical value.

[0048] In actual use, if the condensing pressure is between the first preset high-pressure critical value and the second preset high-pressure critical value, the fan can be controlled to start according to the first preset gear, that is, 20% of the rated power, and after the fan maintains running at 20% of the rated power for the first preset time, the compressor is controlled to start.

[0049] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, such as in the embodiment of the present invention, step S140 also includes step S150.

[0050] S150: During a second preset time of operation of the compressor, periodically adjust the fan speed according to the condensing pressure.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present invention, within the second preset time after the compressor is started, the fan speed can continue to be periodically adjusted according to the condensing pressure. For example, the second preset time can be 30 seconds, and the adjustment period can be 5 seconds. Then, within 30 seconds after the compressor is started, the fan speed is adjusted every 5 seconds according to the condensing pressure to match the fan speed with the condensing pressure, and in this process, the fan speed must not be lower than 20% of the rated speed, so that the pressure reduction process can be continuously performed to avoid high-pressure protection of the compressor. After the compressor runs for 30 seconds, it can enter the normal speed regulation operation state.

[0052] See also Figure 4In some embodiments, such as the present embodiment, step S120 also includes step S160.

[0053] S160: If the condensing pressure is less than the first preset high pressure critical value, the compressor is controlled to start normally and the operating state of the fan is adjusted according to the condensing pressure.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the condensing pressure is less than the first preset high pressure critical value, the compressor is controlled to start directly and enter a normal speed regulation operation state, that is, the operation state of the fan is adjusted according to the condensing pressure.

[0055] See also Figure 5 In some embodiments, such as the present embodiment, the step S160 also includes steps S161-S167.

[0056] S161, respectively obtaining a first preset normal pressure critical value, a second preset normal pressure critical value, a third preset normal pressure critical value, a fourth preset normal pressure critical value, and a fifth preset normal pressure critical value;

[0057] S162, if the condensing pressure is less than or equal to the first preset normal pressure critical value, maintaining the fan in an off state;

[0058] S163, if the condensing pressure is greater than the first preset normal pressure critical value and less than or equal to the second preset normal pressure critical value, adjusting the wind speed of the fan according to a preset speed regulation table, a first preset speed regulation amplitude, and a first preset speed regulation period;

[0059] S164, if the condensing pressure is greater than the second preset normal pressure critical value and less than or equal to the third preset normal pressure critical value, adjusting the wind speed of the fan according to the preset speed regulation table, the second preset speed regulation amplitude and the second preset speed regulation period;

[0060] S165, if the condensing pressure is greater than the third preset normal pressure critical value and less than or equal to the fourth preset normal pressure critical value, adjusting the wind speed of the fan according to the preset speed regulation table, the third preset speed regulation amplitude and the third preset speed regulation period;

[0061] S166, if the condensing pressure is greater than the fourth preset normal pressure critical value and less than or equal to the fifth preset normal pressure critical value, adjusting the wind speed of the fan according to the preset speed regulation table, the fourth preset speed regulation amplitude and the fourth preset speed regulation period;

[0062] S167: If the condensing pressure is greater than the fifth preset normal pressure critical value, the fan is operated at rated power.

[0063] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first preset normal pressure critical value, the second preset normal pressure critical value, the third preset normal pressure critical value, the fourth preset normal pressure critical value and the fifth preset normal pressure critical value are all empirical values, and the first preset normal pressure critical value, the second preset normal pressure critical value, the third preset normal pressure critical value, the fourth preset normal pressure critical value and the fifth preset normal pressure critical value increase in sequence. The first speed regulation cycle, the second speed regulation cycle, the third speed regulation cycle and the fourth speed regulation cycle are speed regulation cycles of different pressure intervals, which can be continuously adaptively corrected according to the AI ​​autonomous learning genetic control algorithm. Generally, the higher the pressure interval, the smaller the speed regulation cycle. The first preset speed regulation amplitude, the second preset speed regulation amplitude, the third preset speed regulation amplitude and the fourth preset speed regulation amplitude can all be obtained by multiplying the fan speed change amount and the corresponding fan speed change amount coefficient at each pressure speed regulation cycle. The preset speed regulation table is a corresponding table of pressure intervals and speeds.

[0064] For example, the first preset normal pressure critical value is Pc1, the second preset normal pressure critical value is Pc2, the third preset normal pressure critical value is Pc3, the fourth preset normal pressure critical value is Pc4, and the fifth preset normal pressure critical value is Pc5. The first speed regulation cycle is T1, the second speed regulation cycle is T2, the third speed regulation cycle is T3, and the fourth speed regulation cycle is T4. The first fan speed change coefficient is β1, the second fan speed change coefficient is β2, the third fan speed change coefficient is β3, and the fourth fan speed change coefficient is β4. The fan speed change is △D, and Pout is the condensing pressure. When Pout≤PC1, the fan is in the off state. When PC1<Pout≤Pc2, the speed regulation cycle is T1, and the speed regulation amplitude is △D*β1. Then, the target speed corresponding to the current Pout is confirmed according to the preset speed regulation table. On the basis of the current speed, the speed regulation amplitude is △D*β1 each time, and the speed regulation cycle is T1, and the fan speed is adjusted to be consistent with the target speed. Among them, the preset speed control table can be shown in the following table (1).

[0065] Condensing pressure Speed ​​(rpm) Speed ​​difference between gears (rpm) P<2000 2000≤P<2020 106 2020≤P<2040 119 13 2040≤P<2060 132 13 2060≤P<2080 145 13 2080≤P<2100 159 14 (1)

[0067] It can be seen from Table (1) that when Pout is between 2000 and 2020, the target speed is 106, and the current speed needs to be adjusted to be consistent with the target speed. It can be understood that Table (1) is only an embodiment of the preset speed adjustment table, which can be adjusted according to different models of air conditioners.

[0068] See also Figure 6 In some embodiments, such as the present embodiment, the fan control method further includes steps S170-S180.

[0069] S170, if it is detected that the compressor is turned off, controlling the fan to operate according to a preset shutdown gear;

[0070] S180: If it is detected that the condensing pressure is less than the sixth preset normal pressure critical value, the fan is turned off.

[0071] In an embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner can determine the need to shut down the compressor based on automatic control logic. When it is detected that the compressor is shut down, the fan can be maintained running according to a preset shutdown position. The preset shutdown position can be 50% of the rated speed. When the fan runs at the preset shutdown position for a certain period of time, or when the condensing pressure is less than the sixth preset normal pressure critical value, the fan is turned off.

[0072] The fan control method disclosed in the present invention can obtain the condensing pressure first when the air conditioner is started, if the compressor needs to be started. When the condensing pressure is greater than a first preset high-pressure critical value, the fan is started first and the compressor is maintained in a closed state to prevent the compressor from starting under a high-pressure state. After the fan is started, the fan speed is adjusted according to the condensing pressure to make it consistent with the target speed. After the fan has run for a period of time, that is, after the condensing pressure drops, the compressor is started again to prevent the compressor from being protected from high pressure.
